Elevator Pitch No. 2

1) The pitch. Same as last time, 1-minute long. No Web cams. No sitting. Be dynamic! Upload the video to YouTube (as you do with all of your videos) and post the link.
Here is my new pitch:


Business:  Phat Ideas

Opportunity:  Tangled headphones all across the world

Solution:  A "Recoil Device For Mobile Phone Headsets"

Here is the abstract of my US Patent:

ABSTRACT
An enclosure which provides a storage of mobile phone headset cables as well as a means to extend and retract said headset cables is disclosed. The enclosure allows the headset cables to be wound internally onto a large diameter reel while a mobile phone connecting cable is wound onto a smaller spool, thereby allowing a greater length of headset cables to be extended. A button enables said cables to be retracted to eliminate slack while the device is in use, or to completely retract the cables when the device is disconnected from the phone. The retracted cable portions may be contained within the enclosure which further comprises a plurality of nests along external surfaces for the storage of ear buds, a microphone, and the phone connection plug in a flush manner, thereby avoiding the entanglement of exposed loose cables.

2) A reflection on the feedback you received from your last pitch. Describe what stood out to you as important, what feedback surprised you the most, what feedback you think was outright wrong or silly. 

Last time I received really good feedback that supported my idea.  I liked the motivation and support.  However, there was one comment regarding how corded technology is going to "fade out".  This surprised me the most and stood out to me the most.  First of all, I think this is silly and outright wrong because the only reason it will "fade out" is if a good working solution isn't found.  Well, I have the solution so corded technology shouldn't fade out.  Corded technology is also way clearer than cordless and also does not pose any health hazards.

3) What did you change, based on the feedback?

Nothing was changed because the only negative feedback I got was regarding something that is totally false and is not supported by any statistics.
